I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?
…so i grew up with what we called five-way in northern kentucky, and no, it’s not cincinnati chili…
- spaghetti
- browned ground beef (or in my case since 1989, vegetarian substitute)
- diced onions (fresh / cold)
- dark red kidney beans (simmered / hot)
- grated cheddar cheese (annatto-colored)
- ketchup
…it’s all layered up on a large plate in that order, bottom-to-top so the cheese melts nicely, cut into a grid pattern with a fork and knife, and then mixed together: i don’t cook it often since moving out on my own thirty-five years ago but it so hits the spot when i do…
So poor mans bolognese. I remember reading when you heat up ketchup it denatures (probably not the right word but opposite of caramelize) and loses its sweetness and becomes pasta sauce.
Not super common but commen enough and just for a snack, but I like using tortillas if there’s no bread in my apartment. I use them for things like peanut butter and mayonnaise wraps and peanut butter and butter wraps.
I also sometimes use tortillas for leftovers in general, depending on the leftovers from the night before. Last time there was leftover homemade mac and cheese and catfish, I heated them and had that wrapped in a plain tortilla with nothing else for breakfast.
Peanut butter and butter? PB and mayonnaise?!?
Gross
Try PB&B on warm toast.
Definitely not an every day treat.
I made Mac and cheese with Velveeta and ground turkey.
Mac and cheese with whatever random protein is like… A norm. Bacon? Hot dog? Chicken?
Yes.
Sandines and kraut with mustard and caraway. I only eat it when I’m alone and have time to brush my teeth afterward. So good though and I’m full for hours.
Cut up tortillas, fry them with some salt, when crispy crack two or three eggs in there and scramble. I grew up eating it and while it is delicious I don’t think I would serve it to guests.
That actually doesn’t sound that bad lol
If you soaked the chips in salsa first that sounds like chilaquiles.
I think as written it’s migas, which is similar but not quite the same, notably the tortillas aren’t smothered in salsa first
Exactly this.
Fair.
My so called broccoli-potato-gratin with pork neck includes quite an amount of cream, salt, bouillion cubes and cheese. My wife doesn’t know and it will stay that way.
When I was pretty serious about powerlifting, I would wake up in the middle of the night and eat a giant spoonful of peanut butter with a big glass of milk, and then go back to bed. I certainly wouldn’t offer that to a guest.
Guys will read this and say hell yeah
Variant on your dish: bake sweet potato, add cottage cheese and eat immediately. Add sweet or savory seasonings to taste. It’s not something I’d bring to share, but it’s definitely not something I’ll hide. As far as quick and dirty meals, it’s reasonably healthy, and probably not the worst suggestion for someone who struggles to cook for themselves.
Actual goblin food: canned black olives between two slices of bread, smush down to prevent them from rolling out.
Guacamole with cottage cheese. The Polish side of my family loves it, but I wouldn’t dare add it to my guac when making it for the Mexican half of my family.
I put ketchup on bread and microwave it
… for what purpose?
That is awful. Sorry
I don’t think there’s anything that I eat that couldn’t be served to anyone else. Even some particularly Brazilian dishes, such as cooked cassava or corn couscous with milk and butter are pretty much vanilla compared to some other local dishes which I dread - such as buchada (a brazilian haggis, made with rice and goat offals), sarapatel (just the cooked goat offals) or chouriço doce (a reduction of sugar, spices and pig blood).
Butter beans with olives. Cover it in oregano, some garlic, some chilli flakes, and then drizzle some soy sauce and olive oil over the top.
It’s dumb, but it’s so tasty, quick, and easy.
I’m not going to put a bowl of lentils and hot sauce in front of a guest.
White bread with mustard, and those dried fried crisy onions sandwiched inside. Gets me through to next meal.
I sometimes open a can of vegetables and pour them in my mouth
Do… Do you drink the juice too?
depends
